An exhibit opening soon at London’s Drawing Room art gallery displays the materials produced for Alejandro Jodorowsky’s sadly never-produced version of Frank Herbert’s Dune novels:

This exhibition includes production drawings made by Moebius, H.R Giger and Chris Foss alongside commissioned work made in response by three international contemporary artists Steven Claydon, Matthew Day Jackson and Vidya Gastaldon.

Following the release of his mystical Western ?

I, for one, have to agree.

Here’s another tibit of interest from <a href=“http://mutateweb.com/archives/2009/09/04/alejandro-jodorowsky?

“Some footage does survive.”

Not quite - that footage was for another Moebuis and Jodorowsky collaboration - L’Incal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L’Incal which was later ripped off into The Fifth Element.

While Incal was probably inspired by the Dune movie they never got to make, that footage must have been made after the Dune movie was canceled.  The Dune movie was never supposed to be animated, whereas a teaser for a movie version of The Incal would probably have been in animated form.  Moebius did eventually direct an animated miniseries called “Arzak Rhapsody”.

to congratulate one should draw this picture. http://www.stellarrentacar.com
